Well the speed of light is 300,000,000 metres per second, x60 seconds in a minute, x60 minutes in an hour, x24 hours in a day, x365 days in a (solar) year. So light travels 9460800000000000 metres in a year, times 35 years:
Light will travel 331,128,000,000,000,000 metres in 35 years, thats 3.31128x10^14 kilometres in 35 (solar) years
35 x 5 = 175 miles
1.1667
A 'light-year' is a distance calculated by how far light can travel in one standard year. A 'light-minute' is how far light can travel in one minute. Earth is about 8 light-minutes (93,000,000 miles) from the Sun. 14 light-years in space is going to be about 84 trillion miles, a huuuuge distance!
35 km is how far it is. (Unless you live in Liberia, Myanmar, or the U.S.A., in which case you'd probably call it about 21.749 miles -- since those are the only countries on earth that don't yet use the metric system.)
1,000,000,000 light-years (one billion light-years) are in one Gly
it is 0.0000000406 lightyears away, it is pretty close.

The closest (DX Cnc) is 11.8 lightyears away. The farthest is nearly 4000 lightyears away.
117,572,507,463,672.14 Miles That's over 117 trillion miles.
Deneb is approximately 1,400 light years from us.Deneb is said to be 1425 lightyears away
There are telescopes that see the light of protogalaxies that are thirteen billion lightyears away. My pocket binoculars can see nearby galaxies that are two million lightyears away.
Ten Thousand Lightyears was created in 1982.
The milky way galaxy is roughly a disc shape the is around 1000 lightyears thick on average and 100,000 lightyears in diameter. Our solar system sits roughly 26,500 light years from the centre.
